Geger Beach (Pantai Geger) is a calm, soft white-sand beach on the east of Nusa Dua. A reef shelters it from the open ocean, so the water at the shore is gentle and shallow with no big waves — one of the most family-friendly, relaxed beaches in south Bali. A small temple, Pura Geger, stands on the headland above the beach, and at low tide the seaweed beds that locals harvest are exposed.
